Test EssentialsX teleport delay and movement cancellation

Applies to: EssentialsX; match the linked maintainer documentation to your installed platform and release.
Documentation checked 9 November 2026.

A teleport delay gives players time to cancel an accidental journey. Test the delay and movement behaviour with a controlled pair of accounts before changing an active PvP server.

Follow the procedure

Write down the intended delay in seconds and which teleport commands should use it. Separate the warm-up delay from the cooldown between completed teleports.
Inspect the teleport delay and related cancellation comments in the generated EssentialsX configuration. Record the previous values rather than copying an old configuration from another server.
Check the test account for teleport-delay and cooldown bypass permissions. An operator account is unsuitable for measuring the ordinary player experience.
Apply one delay change during a quiet period using a controlled restart or the plugin’s documented configuration reload. Avoid reloading the whole server.
Issue a request-based teleport between consenting test players. First stand still to measure completion; then repeat while moving to check the documented cancellation behaviour.
Try the affected home or warp command too. Record which commands share the same delay so your player-facing rules describe the behaviour people will experience.

Check the result

A stationary ordinary player should complete the teleport after the intended wait, and the tested cancellation action should interrupt it according to the installed release. Check the arrival location and any charged cost as well. A delay message without a completed safe arrival does not prove the whole teleport flow works.

If the result is wrong

If teleporting is immediate, inspect bypass permissions and command ownership before increasing the delay again. If players cannot complete a teleport while standing still, check external combat or movement plugins. Restore the recorded delay and retain the logs from the failed controlled test.
